Base Distance

For home-to-1st and 3rd-to-home, the measurement is taken from the back point, or apex, of home plate to the farthest corner of each of 1st or 3rd base down the foul line. For 1st-to-2nd and 2nd-to-3rd, the measurement is taken from the outfield side of 1st or 3rd base at the corner by the foul line and extends to the center of 2nd base.

The runner’s lane — which is always 3' to the foul side of the 1st base foul line — starts exactly half the distance down the 1st base line and ends at the back edge of 1st base. In other words, it’s marked on the second half of the 1st base line.

Measurement used to ensure the infield is square. May be measured from the back point or apex of home plate to the center of 2nd base. Or, it can be measured from the back corner of 1st base to the back corner of 3rd base.

Distance from the back point of home plate (apex) to any portion of the backstop. Distance listed in the table is the minimum for that league. This distance can be greater than the minimum distance, but it cannot be any less.
